Exponential Function (exp)

Computes e^x with a specified number of digits of precision using a binary splitting method for high-precision calculation.

🛠 Build & Run

Make sure you have GHC (Glasgow Haskell Compiler) installed.

cd exp
ghc exp.hs -o exp
./exp      # Linux/macOS
.\exp.exe  # Windows

⚙ Command-line Arguments

This program interactively asks for input rather than command-line arguments.

1. Enter the value of x (the exponent).
2. Enter the number of digits of precision.

Example run:

./exp      # Linux/macOS
.\exp.exe  # Windows

Enter the value of x (exponent): 2
Enter the number of digits of precision: 10

📋 Expected Output

The program prints the value of e^x to the requested number of digits.

Example output:

e^2 to 10 digits is: 7.389056098

🔔 Notes

• The program uses a binary splitting algorithm for high-precision computation.
• Ensure reasonable input values for x and digits to avoid long computation times.
• Input validation is included to prevent invalid entries.
